The causes of action in the 33-page complaint: negligence, strict liability for an abnormally dangerous product, private and public nuisance, and trespass to land. The Plaintiffs are each seeking $50 million in compensatory damages alleging fuel leaks contaminated the groundwater at their residences.
Complaint also seeks punitive damages and $300 million on each cause of action for restoration of the water supply. The complaint also alleges bodily injury.
I have not seen/read the complaint - but all causes of action are common law and not CERCLA. No innocent landowner defense here!
